1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The practical implications of complement deposition in direct immunofluorescence (DIF) microscopy and its influence on the disease phenotype are poorly understood. We aimed to investigate whether the presence of complement deposition in DIF microscopy gives rise to differences in the morphological, immunological, and histological characteristics of patients with BP (bullous pemphigoid). We performed a retrospective study encompassing patients with BP in a specialized tertiary referral center. Logistic regression model was utilized to identify variables independently associated with complement deposition. The study included 233 patients with BP, of whom 196 (84.1%) demonstrated linear C3 deposition along the dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ) in DIF analysis. BP patients with C3 deposition had higher mean (SD) levels (645.2 (1418.5) vs. 172.5 (243.9) U/mL;
